Using Artificial Intelligence Capabilities for Cyber Attacks
Abstract
The article discover methods of organizing cyber attacks using artificial intelligence (AI) in the context of growing geopolitical tensions. The analysis of the use of AI by intruders for the subsequent development of protection systems is carried out. The applied method of analysis of MITRE and Lockheed Martin models, as well as considering real cases, make it possible to identify threat groups and techniques for using AI in cyber attacks. The authors substantiate the conclusion that it is necessary to create self-learning security systems against “combat AI”.
